Chapter 78 Battle of Puyang 2

After being attacked by Bai Fu's army, the Chu army strengthened their vigilance on both wings, and their marching speed slowed down again.

Since seeing Xiang Tong appear on the battlefield, Xiang Ye's heart has not calmed down. He lowered his head all the way, and the expression on his face sometimes showed a little bit of relief, and sometimes showed a little bit of worry.

"What's wrong with you?" Mengsu, who was riding beside Xiang Ye, soon noticed something was wrong with him, and leaned closer and asked softly.

Xiang Ye raised his eyes and looked at her, forced a smile and said, "Didn't you see Xiang Tong just now?"

"Xiang Tong?" Mengsu was stunned and said in disbelief: "Didn't he get thrown into the Yellow River with Xiang Qing? Could it be that he is not dead yet?"

Xiang Ye nodded, sighed and said: "I thought he was dead, but it was clearly him who fought with General Qin on the battlefield just now. I just don't know how Miss Xiang Qing is doing now. If she hadn't died, what would have happened?

good."

Mengsu smiled slightly, took Xiang Ye's hand and said, "Don't worry, they were both tied up and thrown into the Yellow River. If Xiang Tong didn't die, someone must have saved him. I think Miss Xiang Qing must have done the same.

Safe and sound, you and I can finally no longer feel guilty for their deaths."

Xiang Ye's hand was held by Mengsu, and from those white and soft hands, he could feel Mengsu's deep affection for him.

He didn't know when Mengsu's affection began, but he could feel that it was getting warmer.

"Mengsu." Xiang Ye squeezed Mengsu's hand slightly and said to her: "We are about to go to Puyang, where we will directly confront Zhang Han. Although this battle will not be too fierce, but as long as

If there is a battle, people will eventually die. You promise me that you will hide in the middle army when the time comes, and no matter what happens on the battlefield, you will not take any risks."

Mengsu smiled at Xiang Ye and whispered: "You are too worried. I am not from the Chu country, so I will not fight for them and the Qin people. Don't worry, as long as you are not in danger, I will definitely

Won’t put myself in danger.”

Mengsu agreed to Xiang Ye, but Xiang Ye still squeezed his hand with a solemn face and said to her: "No, what I want you to promise me is that even if I am in danger, you must protect yourself.

I would rather be trapped in a tight siege than have half of your hair damaged."

"Uh!" Mengsu was stunned by Xiang Ye's words. These words gave her a different kind of feeling. There was the sweetness of being cared about by Xiang Ye, but also Xiang Ye didn't want to go into danger with her.

She was so bitter that she was speechless for a moment and just nodded heavily.

"General Xiang, Mr. Pei has invited you." While Xiang Ye and Meng Su were talking, an officer ran over on horseback, bowed his hand to Xiang Ye and said, "Pei Gong invites General Xiang to discuss military affairs."

Xiang Ye shook his head and smiled bitterly. When Liu Bang made him a hussar general, he knew that one day he would be placed on the cusp of the storm, but he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly. Chu Jun

Liu Bang had just been attacked by the Qin army, and Liu Bang ordered people to come to summon him. Even if he was not asked to lead the army to attack the enemy, there must be some difficult task for him to do.

Although he understood in his heart, as a subordinate of Liu Bang, Xiang Ye couldn't say anything. He could only nodded to the officer and said, "Go back and report to Pei Gong. I will be there soon."

The officer responded, turned his horse and ran towards Liu Bang's position.

"You have to be careful. If he arranges a fatal mission for you, you can refuse, but the worst we can do is leave here." After the officer left, Mengsu looked at Xiang Ye with some worry and whispered: "I don't like him, even though the whole world doesn't like him.

He is said to be a kind and honest elder, but I always feel that his eyes are gloomy when he looks at people."

"You feel the same as I do." Xiang Ye was riding on horseback, leaning forward and whispering in Mengsu's ear. After that, he winked at her and led Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng to ride towards Liu Bang.

Rush over there.

When Xiang Ye and others passed by a carriage in the team, a woman in the carriage opened the curtain and looked outside. When she saw Shi Lei, a trace of obsession appeared in her eyes, and two red spots climbed up her cheeks.

Her face looked like that of a young woman who had seen a powerful penis.

But when she saw Li Xinpeng riding galloping alongside Shi Lei, the obsession in her eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by an inexplicable anger that burned fiercely, as if it would appear from her eyes in the next second.

It spurted out, burning Li Xinpeng into ashes.

"Humph!" The woman snorted heavily and lowered the curtain. When she leaned against the carriage wall again, her face was filled with murderous intent.

"Pei Gong!" Xiang Ye led Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng to Liu Bang. The three of them bowed their hands to Liu Bang. Xiang Ye asked, "Pei Gong summoned the general, but I don't know why?"

When Liu Bang saw Xiang Ye and others coming, a smile suddenly filled his originally serious face. He took Xiang Ye's hand and said to him: "With General Xiang, I feel relieved this time."

"Oh?" Xiang Ye looked at Liu Bang pretending to be puzzled. From the changes in Liu Bang's expression, he had already seen that there must be an extremely difficult task waiting for them to complete this time. What he didn't know was just what Liu Bang would do.

What kind of tasks should be assigned to him?

Seeing Xiang Ye's puzzled face, Liu Bang said with a smile: "The Qin army just attacked our army. Fortunately, General Yingbu led his army to stop it in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Just now I was thinking, since the Qin army can attack our army

Launching a surprise attack, why can't our army return the favor? So we thought of General Xiang leading a thousand men to launch a surprise attack on the main force of the Qin army. If the main force of the Qin army did not move, our army would have no choice but to prepare for a long-term confrontation with them; if

The Qin army mobilizes its main force to attack you, and the main force of our army can attack the middle army from behind, eliminate them here and capture Zhang Han alive!"

After hearing Liu Bang's plan, Xiang Ye's expression changed, and he pondered for a moment and said: "Although Pei Gong's plan is a good one, the risk is too great. The Qin army has forty or fifty thousand people stationed here, and

However, our army only went to attack with a thousand men. If we were surrounded by the Qin army, I am afraid that these more than a thousand people would have no chance of surviving."

"That's why I thought of General Xiang." Liu Bang had already thought about Xiang Ye's consideration of success and failure. When Xiang Ye raised this question, he said to Xiang Ye: "If others go, they may be defeated, but Xiang

If the general goes, he can suppress the Qin army with his peerless swordsmanship that can split mountains and crack the earth. And I just want you to harass the Qin army, and there is no need to fight them to the death. Once they attack you,

The main force of our army will attack quickly, cooperate with you inside and outside, and annihilate the Qin army in one fell swoop!"

Well, seeing Liu Bang's sincerity, Xiang Ye couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded and asked: "I wonder when Pei Gong wants me to set off, and where is Zhang Han's main force?"

Seeing Xiang Ye's agreement, Liu Bang immediately beamed with joy and quickly said to him: "It's better to choose the right time than to hit the right time. General Xiang immediately went to select a thousand cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the Qin army. He must create a gap in the Qin army and let the Qin army attack."

Their morale was affected. If the main force of our army were to cover up the enemy again, the Qin army would definitely be defeated. In response to the reconnaissance horses sent by General Xiang Yu earlier, Zhang Han stationed the main force in the south of Puyang City. They had made defense preparations and waited for our army to arrive.

The army launched a decisive battle."

Knowing that Zhang Han stationed his army in the south of Puyang City, Xiang Ye felt somewhat confident. What he feared most was not an encounter with the Qin army. What he feared was that Zhang Han stationed his army under Puyang City. If so, he would lead

After the Qin army rushed over, as long as the Qin army inside and outside the city cooperated closely, they would be able to surround them and completely annihilate them. However, if Zhang Han stationed his army far away from the city, his 40,000 to 50,000 people would be at odds with those in the city.

The Qin army lost contact, and it was not easy to organize an effective counterattack.

"Don't worry, Mr. Pei!" After weighing the pros and cons, Xiang Ye bowed his hand to Liu Bang and said, "Xiang Ye is favored by Mr. Pei for his promotion. How dare he not obey Mr. Pei's orders? Just wait for our good news!"

After that, he reined in his horse and shouted to Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng: "Let's go! Come with me to serve as the vanguard for the entire army!"

When Xiang Yu learned that Liu Bang ordered Xiang Ye to lead a thousand troops to surprise the Qin army, he frowned. In his opinion, although Liu Bang's arrangement was quite appropriate, it was a great challenge to Xiang Ye.

Thousands of people attacked the Qin army's camp. If they failed, they would be surrounded by the Qin army and annihilated.

But Xiang Yu did not stop this crazy plan. He also knew that if the thousand men led by Xiang Ye could contain the Qin army, the Chu army would be able to gain more preparation time and attack the Qin army at the best time.

, greatly shortening the confrontation time outside Puyang City.

Xiang Ye, who was ordered to launch a surprise attack, knew very well that he was on a mission with a narrow escape this time. The Qin army had already made defense preparations and must monitor the Chu army very closely. The Chu army suddenly sent out a cavalry and quickly attacked the Qin army.

How could the Qin army escape the sight of the Qin army as the camp rushed forward? What these thousand people were about to face was not a surprise attack, but probably a fierce and head-on battle.

Xiang Yu didn't block this plan. Another reason was that he wanted to see Xiang Ye's military talent. Xiang Yu himself gave others the impression that he was a reckless general who only knew how to fight head-on and would never make a difference in a battle. But he knew very well that every time

When he fought with the enemy, he was fully prepared in advance, and the victory or defeat was already determined.

Xiang Ye led a thousand soldiers and horses towards the south of Puyang City. After they set off, the main force of the Chu army moved faster. Xiang Ye led a small number of troops. Liu Bang and Xiang Yu knew very well that the fighter planes created by Xiang Ye were very

It may only be a moment. If they don't seize this fleeting opportunity, even if they can defeat Zhang Han in the future, I'm afraid the two sides will have to stalemate in Puyang for a long time.
